Nishant Kashikar, Country Manager (India & Gulf), Tourism Australia says, “India continues to be an important market for Australia and is well poised to be the first inbound market to recover to 2019 levels. Our Premier Aussie Specialists are at the forefront of selling Australian tourism experiences, and initiatives like these will keep them abreast with the latest developments and wealth of new experiences that Australia has to offer. During the pandemic, Australia inaugurated over 100 new hotels and over 70 new tourism experiences, thereby offering an opportunity to channel India’s pent-up demand for travel into actual visitation.”
